Have you ever had one of those mornings where you wake up, completely unable to recall the dream you had during the night, and are positive that you missed something important?

For the first time in a long while I am unable to recall the dream I had last night. I get smatterings of the songs that I heard while I was sleeping, but nothing more than that, and it’s rather disconcerting.

I use my dreams a lot as a point of reference for the day. If I had a good dream then, although it’s work, my day is a little bit better. If I had a disturbed sleep full of abstract images then I am my normal self; confused, befuddled and a little absent-minded (yep, you can tell I have this kind of dream a lot).

Being unable to remember my dream in any way at all is rather unsettling.
